The Sound of Laughter Isn’t Necessarily Funny

The Sound of Laughter Isn’t Necessarily Funny is a catalogue in the form of a cassette tape by Jonathan Monk published after the show The Sound of Laughter Isn’t Necessarily Funny held in Monk’s home town of Leicester. The catalogue comprises a five panel concertina booklet printed in gold and black with jewel case and prison cassette. In Monk’s work there is always interplay between art history and autobiography, in this work the personal takes prominence.
